Importance of Yoga while trekking

Yoga is the medium of entering the self and it helps us to find out the meaning of life. We trek for refreshment and to entertain. In surface, it seems that both can satisfy us for our desire to be happy. But in higher level, yoga has its own purpose to purify our body, mind and spirit. Trekking can be one part of yoga but it is not complete medium to get purified. If we combine both in one place then the purpose of yoga may be met in some aspect.

Yoga is not only the process to connect our body with our mind but it can connect us with the higher self. Yoga can make us physically, mentally, spiritually and socially healthy. It can increase the memory power of the person who does it regularly. It helps us to get free from all types of stress and tension. It increases the personal power in every field of human life. It can build up self awareness of the person. It can remove the negative toxins from our body which is the cause of every disease.

It creates the perfect harmony in our mind and brings exact decision power. Yoga is the medium to increase the inner peace in our mind. It develops the power to create the better relationship with the people. It abolishes all the negativity, which reside in our mind from many years.

When we add yoga with our walking, it can help us to remove all the pains that we have during trekking. If we add Pranayama and meditation with walking, that helps us to be free from all the aches on our body. Yoga trekking is the combination of yoga with trekking, and it can play very important role in our life. Trekking can be the beauty in yoga and yoga can complete the purpose of our desire to trek. Both give us full of relax and refreshment in our life.
